Girl Scout cookies are not that good

[speckledfrog]

This has been a weird realization for me.

[Ohhmm(bligo)]

[gummybear]

They were much better when they were bigger and when they embraced their trans fats.
Thin Mints were never good.

You take that back. The shortbread cookies are a gift from God. FROM GOD.




Disclaimer- drink.

Drunk. Whatever

I learned a couple years ago that I don't like Thin Mints anymore and I still have a box of Tagalongs from last year in the freezer. I just can't get behind them. Trefoils, though, i agree. Gift from God. I ordered 4 boxes this year + 2 boxes of Rah-Rah Raisin. I wish they still had Dulce De Leche here.

Other than Samoas, I agree.

[lilac05]

I really don't want to agree with you, but I think I do.

Would I think that they were good if they were $1-2 a box? Yes! But somewhere along the line, the calories + cost started to outweigh the taste for me.

I'll still buy them if a girl comes to my door, but only to support her, not because I'm dying to have the cookies in my house. (I will still eat them & enjoy them, though!)

[hymen]

Aldi of all places has a samoas knock off that is just as good, IMO.

[scottyderp]

WHERRRT?

In my final days, I'm going to cover my nude, wrinkly body with Samoas, and eat them off, one by one.

For real LOL from both me and my husband (I had to explain why I was laughing)

[verycontrary247]

I'll admit I have an addiction to Savannah Smiles.

Thin mints rule.  (Although I do like mint oreos now)

[wesleycrusher4ever]

The lemonade ones are so good!!!

[greenlight]

Samoas microwaved for 3-4 seconds juuuust until the chocolate starts to get melty are amazing.

Thin Mints used to be my favorite. Especially froze . I can live without them now.

I can deal with the keebler version of samoas.

But I have never found a reasonable substitute for tagalongs. I plan on buying at least 5-6 boxes even though I'm on a diet. My plan is to make them last all year but I know that is some bullshit.

[speckledfrog]

Trefoils are made of 50% playdough, I'm pretty sure. That's actually what I was eating when I made the post.

[WOT?*]

So this means nobody wants to order from the grands?

I let each of my boys pick a box. It was adorable.

Dollar Generals are pretty good.

[boxertdog]

Agree. They are the McDonald's of cookies. An hour later you want actual treats because they didn't satisfy any craving whatsoever.

[miso]

They're fucking terrible.

I'm annoyed my husband bought five boxes from our niece, even though I won't be eating any.

[vanlatte]

Nooooo! There is nothing better than frozen Samoas, Tagalongs and Thin Mints! 

[sallywalker]

No No. Go away now.

I get DGs version of samoas.

[berbles]

I think I like the Samoa ice cream better than the cookies. I mean, it has Samoas in it! Plus, ice cream.

[SmartyCat]

The thin mints used to be good, back in the day when there was an actual mint layer between the cookie and the chocolate. I am old.

[icedtea]

Thin mints! Frozen!

I remember when I was a kid they had these daisies that were cinnamon (or something) with frosting. I fucking loved those, but I haven't been able to find them in over a decade

I'm sorry... My indignation might be a little extreme... Oh wait, NOPE

It's going to be awkward at the GTG,  isn't it?

[olegregg]

I haven't had tagalongs since I sold them, but they were pretty good 20 years ago.
